Anybody watch building it bigger "space tower" 2006 ?.It did have some interesting segments with there pump.From what I saw it would have been a walking disaster,so many things they did I couldn't comprehend.

Many,

I do not even own a television so the chances of my seing the program are 0.0

How about telling a few of the unusual practices ;~)

I seem to remember a double end 5" tip hose,no saftey dump on blow out cap,the blow out procedure,lack of saftey harness's,the amount of grout that the bin could handle and weight bending rebar.Those were what I saw,my time was divided between the show and the pot roast.Timothy said it was yummy.

Another part was the pump would not pump for some reason. Then they had to use the "most valuable piece of equipment on the job". They used 2 tower cranes to make the pour. I came in late and that was all I saw.

I'm wanting to say they blew an elbow on the boom.I kinda remember them saying the friction causes to much heat and causes it to happen.

Yea Too much license to say what they want! I really think they were just pulling the hosts leg,and he went hook,line and sinker!To quote" The friction of the concrete creates so much heat,it literally melted a hole in the elbow"Yea right! Did you also see the clamp on the blow-out cap? It wasn't closed fully! Just imagine what would have happened to the host who was standind 5 feet away" Trama in real life The only one I really believed was in a ER room when the pump operator said"Unless you do this job,you'll never understand! There was air trapped behind his plugged up reducer,and when he went to clear it, it exploded in his face,taking skin from his face and arm! Now that's reality television!!

One of the first things I did was look at year of filming,which was 2006.One would think at that time some pretty good saftey standards were in place,guess not.I did see them bring in godzilla to clamp that one 90 on top.
